OM-4T, T-Max 100 and replenished X-Tol.
I haven't developed any film for a few months, and wanted to check the health of my X-Tol working solution. The test roll looked good, so I developed 3 of the rolls of T-Max 400 and 100 in my backlog, and they look good too.

Haven't seen this film like ever, will put on my radar now

You should be able to get it from PhotoImpex. It does need a special first developer (to tame the contrast) but it ought to be possible to shoot it at EI 64 or EI 80 in a reversal process.

Nope, search yields nothing and it's a site I usually source my films I cannot find locally, thus I haven't seen it. Maybe it's unique to US market or something along these lines?

I don't think so; it was originally an Agfa product made in Germany. I don't know who owns the factory now, but it's still sold under the same name Agfa used, and I presume coated on the same equipment.

(Ooops! Wrong thread - I mant this for the “Latest Purchase” thread.)

My latest purchases were an Olympus Pen F bellows slide copier attachment and an Olympus OM1 28mm f3.5 lens, both from the same vendor.

What is interesting is that I bought a Pen F Bellows 2, to which the slide copier attaches, from the same vendor more than a year ago. At the time, they did not have the copier for sale.

The lens was listed as “Parts Only”, as the face ring had beed removed and the vendor said that they did not have the tool needed to replace it. Otherwise, the lens was complete, even including the small ball bearing for the f-stop ring’s click stops. On examining the face ring, I noted that there was a very slight dent in the threads, which I was able to pound out with a couple of small pieces of oak as an anvil and punch. I then noticed that the ring was slightly warped (it did not lie flat on a glass plate). I gave the ring a few taps against a flat counter top with my leather mallet, which brought the ring back to flat. I wrapped the ring with blue painters tape so I could grip it and was able to carefully thread it back on the lens body, tightening it down with my spanner wrench. So, I now have a 28mm lens in EX condition for about 1/5th the normal price.

Leica M5, Tri-X in Xtol 1+1, pretty vanilla really. Developed both M5 rolls alongside one from Contax G2 roll, things happen in threes around here.

At present, the carry camera is my 1941 Welta Weltini, with f/2 Xenon. Loaded with .EDU Ultra (= Fomapan) 400, still in the camera (close to half done).

Mamiya RB67 with bulk loaded Aviphot 200 @100, using POTA developer. Tried this stuff with D-76 and F76+ (my regular developers) but like the results from POTA. Better grays, less contrast.

4 or 5 decade old Ortho TriX 4x5 sheet film, exposed at iso25, developed in parodinal, shot in my obtrusive Polaroid MP-4 copy camera.

The key to Ortho Tri-X film, if you have some, is don't handle it under a safelight. It's actually lying. While it's not panchromatic, it still fogs under a red safelight.

Thanks for that tip -- I've got a box of this in 4x5 and I'd hate to test it and find out the whole box is edge fogged (and the sheets I loaded worse than that).
